Chapter 89 Greenhouse 1
A dozen people were busy until six o'clock in the afternoon. According to Wu Fei's estimate, they should be able to mow 30 acres of land. However, no matter how good the plan was, at the end of the day, Wu Fei and his brother-in-law took turns driving the tractor non-stop.
Land cutting, by the time everyone finished work and went home in the afternoon, they had only finished cutting more than 40 pieces of land, which was almost 20 acres.
There are still several areas of land that have not been cleared of grass. According to today's progress, it will take almost a week to clear 100 acres of land.
After doing the work, Wu Fei calculated that one person's day's wages plus meal money is 150 yuan, and a pack of cigarettes costs 8 yuan. Lunch and other things are not included. Together, it costs 158 yuan a day for 9 people.
That’s more than 1,400 yuan a day, and almost 10,000 yuan a week.
Wu Fei couldn't help but think of what he had seen on the news. It only cost 40 to 50 yuan per acre to rent a large tractor to cultivate an acre of land in the Northeast. He only spent 100 yuan an acre to weed it himself. There was still land to be plowed and dug later.
Pit, add base fertilizer, and plant trees. No wonder the tea plantation has been in panic for so many years and no one has come to contract it. It is really that the current labor cost is not proportional to the output of the field.
Fortunately, you don’t need to hire labor for plowing the land, digging holes and applying base fertilizer. You can use a tractor to do it. You only need to hire help when planting trees.
During dinner in the evening, my father who was supervising the decoration in the county called me and said that the person who installed the greenhouse would come to the house tomorrow. I just told them how to install the greenhouse then.
I have been talking about installing a greenhouse for a long time, but my father has always been in contact. Today I finally got the news that someone is coming, which is really not easy.
If he had never installed a greenhouse before, Wu Fei would have wanted to buy the steel frame of the greenhouse online and install it himself. He didn’t know what the owner of the greenhouse thought, and he had no enthusiasm at all for doing business.
In the past, on TV, Wu Fei saw that the greenhouses in the plains were all contiguous. Some greenhouses were as high as a one-story building, and some covered an area of several acres.
However, the greenhouse Wu Fei plans to build is a simple steel frame greenhouse. Wu Fei also checked the price online. If the labor and materials are contracted, it is usually about 20 yuan per square meter. These only include the main body of the greenhouse, and the small ones inside.
You need to build the shed yourself. If you want to install an irrigation system, that will cost extra.
At the beginning, Wu Fei planned to install a few acres of greenhouses to grow peppers and other vegetables, but now Wu Fei has changed his mind and will first install about 10 acres of greenhouses to grow strawberries and watermelons. If his father still wants to grow peppers
, when the time comes, we will install a greenhouse covering several acres in the vegetable field in the backyard.
Thinking that the people who would install the greenhouse would come tomorrow, Wu Fei would discuss with them how to install the greenhouse. Then his brother-in-law would have to drive the tractor alone. It would be really tiring at the end of the day.
Today, two people alternated driving the tractor. At the end of the day, Wu Fei felt that his hands were numb and his butt/butt hurt from sitting. It seemed that he would have to hire another person to drive the tractor.
Fortunately, Wu Quan had something to do in the past few days and did not use the excavator to clear the pond, otherwise he would have been too busy at all.
Originally, Wu Fei planned to spend a few days mowing the grass with his brother-in-law and other things, but now it seems that he still has to ask for help.
"Brother-in-law, is there anyone in the village who knows how to drive a farm tractor? Dad just called and said that the person who will install the greenhouse will be here tomorrow. I won't be able to drive the tractor by then, so please hire someone else to drive it instead of you. Otherwise,
It’s unbearable to drive alone for a day.”
Hearing that Wu Fei would be busy installing the greenhouse tomorrow, Zhang Yibin said: "This is simple. Driving a tractor is much easier than driving a car. Er Meng knows how to drive it. Just ask Er Meng to help drive it in the next few days. You go
Go about your business, I will make arrangements for mowing the lawn. I will talk to Er Meng later."
When they got up in the morning, Wu Fei and his brother-in-law went up the mountain to cut grass in a few fields before coming back for breakfast. People in the village had to have breakfast at home before they could come over, so it would be a little slower.
After breakfast, Wu Fei waited at home until almost ten o'clock to wait for the man who came to install the greenhouse. As soon as he saw Wu Fei, the man smiled and said: "Hello, hello, my name is Ao Wenzhi. You are Wu Bang
Brother Wu Fei, right? I'm really sorry. I have been working as a greenhouse manufacturer in other places some time ago, and I just came back a few days ago. Originally, Brother Wu Bang called me a long time ago, and I rushed over as soon as I came back.
Already."
Wu Fei always thought that the owner of the greenhouse was not active in business, but it turned out that he went to a manufacturer in another place. In the end, it was an acquaintance of his father.
Although I have been waiting for a long time, it is all in the past. People have arrived today, so it is business to quickly set up the greenhouse. Wu Fei hurriedly stepped forward and greeted: "Boss Ao, I have waited long enough for you. But come here
That’s fine. Let’s have some breakfast at home first, and then we’ll go take a look in the fields.”
"Thank you, thank you. I just came here after breakfast. Let's go directly to the field where the greenhouse needs to be installed."
On the mountain, a dozen people were busy under the leadership of his brother-in-law. Wu Fei took Ao Wenzhi to the field that had just been cleared yesterday.
Looking at the field, Ao Wenzhi said to Wu Fei: "Boss Wu, you can only make small greenhouses here. Big ones are difficult to install."
The entire tea garden is arranged in a trapezoid shape from bottom to top. Each piece of land is about the same size, about 6 meters wide and 50 meters long. Wu Fei also checked above and found a steel frame greenhouse with a width of 6 meters.
It is just suitable for the terrain of Wu Fei Tea Garden.
Wu Fei said to Ao Wenzhi: "Boss Ao, I have also checked this information on the Internet. The width of these fields is about 6 meters, which is suitable for the smallest steel frame greenhouse. I don't know where you have this kind of greenhouse?"
How much does a standard greenhouse cost per square meter?”
"If the price is right, I plan to build ten acres this year to see the effect. If the price is right and the effect is good, I plan to increase the area of the greenhouse next year. As you can see, the several hundred acres of this hilltop are mine.
."
"I don't know what kind of greenhouse Boss Wu wants to make. What I can do here include simple arch sheds and greenhouses. I don't know what kind of greenhouse you plan to make."
"Just make a simple arch shed, all steel frame, ventilated on both sides, with a film roller. How much does it cost per square meter? Also, what are the specifications of the steel pipes you have there and how thick are the pipes?"
During this period of time, Wu Fei frequently searched for information about greenhouses on the Internet. Greenhouses with an area of one acre range from the lowest cost, which uses bamboo as a frame, for a few thousand yuan, to glass greenhouses, which cost tens of tens of dollars, and are used for tourism and scientific experiments.
An integrated modern greenhouse.
